Mendoza Trips & Tours
Mendoza
In the foothills of the Andes in the northern-central part of Argentina, Mendoza is the country’s premier wine-producing region and the birthplace of silky-smooth Malbec, famous the world over. With over 1,500 wineries to choose from in the three main wine regions, Uco Valley, Luján de Cuyo, and Maipú Valley, spending your days sipping on world-class grapes is a top activity. But the gorgeous landscapes and endless sunny days provide the perfect setting for other ways of exploring too. The city of Mendoza itself is one of the most peaceful and unique in Argentina, and urban culture vultures will feel right at home amongst the plazas and galleries whilst foodies will enjoy indulging in the regional cuisine - think humitas and traditional roasts followed by some serious dulce de leche goodness. In the great outdoors, choose from horseback riding, hiking, rock-climbing, fly-fishing or whitewater rafting, all whilst taking in the stunning natural surroundings.
Start with a recommended trip or create one from scratch
A collection of valleys and hills below the lofty Andes, Mendoza is famous as the main source of Malbec - and happily, there's plenty to taste! Spend your time hopping from one vineyard to the next, tucking into the local cuisine along the way and enjoying the beautiful climate that makes Mendoza such a prime grape-growing region. The selection of outdoor activities is stellar too - we're talking hiking, rugged bike rides and horseback excursions, as well as white water rafting, skiing (in the right season), and trekking to the rocky slopes of Aconcagua.
The views of the Andes never get old. As you drive out of Mendoza, over the flatlands and into the Uco Valley, that first glimpse of the snowcapped peaks will stay with you forever.
Aconcagua, the highest mountain in the western hemisphere, sits on the border between Mendoza and Chile, and is just a couple of hours drive away. At 6,706 metres, the impressive peak is definitely worth booking a day trip for.
With a focus on wine-related experiences and the range of outdoor activities on offer, this might not be an entirely ideal destination if travelling with little ones. Mendoza is more of a Disneyland for wine-loving grown ups!
